I really like this book because of how well it is written and arranged. I love how each song has background information, correct pronunciations, and English translations. The only thing I wish it had was a CD that played the song as well as the accompaniment.

I use this book often as a voice teacher because the Italian is so accessible, especially to those new to Italian repertoire. The pronunciation keys are excellent and the book also has great background information on the pieces and composers.

I've really enjoyed using this book in my teaching. The arrangements in the old Schirmer edition are fine if you like a late Victorian overlay to the music. Personally, I prefer the cleaner sound of these, and the return to some of the quirkier accidentals which were smoothed out...

I bought this for my twelve-year old daughter, who is just beginning to study voice. I find it very helpful, almost a do-it-yourself guide. The pronunciation key is especially helpful. I may buy another one for myself!
